Sequencer / Recorder Software

Digital Performer 11, the new version of Motu's Professional Audio / Midi software. Upgrade from previous versions, dematerialised (the licence will be sent to you by e-mail and the software will need to be downloaded).

ARTICLE N° 78550
The new version of Digital Performer brings a host of new features.

- Nanosampler 2.0 :
This major upgrade to Nanosampler serves as the virtual instrument of choice for every DP user to create unique rhythms, instruments and sounds. Drop in a sample and start stretching, slicing, randomising and transforming audio into just about any sound or instrument you can imagine. New features include: three playback modes (Classic, 1-shot and Slice), ZTX time stretching, beat slicing with Randomize and Auto Randomize, Repeat, Reverse and a complete rewrite of the user interface.

- Articulation Maps:
With DP's new Articulation Maps feature, users have complete control over the expressive depth of today's most advanced orchestral sound libraries, including VSL, East West, Spitfire, Cinesamples and many more. Users can create or import articulation maps to create dynamic instruments and ensembles, allowing them to play, record or program expressive performances with unprecedented realism and musical impact.
Each articulation can be associated with a symbol, stem ornament, alternative notehead or custom text (such as con sordino) in DP's QuickScribe notation editor. Symbols remain connected to the sounds in their orchestral library, so what you see is what you hear. Because notes remember their symbol, users can instantly switch maps at any time (to another sound library, for example). What's more, each articulation can trigger multiple forms of output, from velocity changes to note stacks, supporting even the most advanced orchestral libraries, such as the VSL Synchron engine. The graphical PD editor provides clear, intuitive editing of articulations in separate channels.

- Support for MIDI Polyphonic Expression (MPE) and per-note CC:
In DP 11, users can record the multi-channel output of an MPE controller, such as a Roli Seaboard, as normal MIDI notes with encapsulated MPE expression data. After recording a range of gestures (tap, press, slide and lift), users see a single stream of normal MIDI notes each containing their own note-specific (performance-generated) controllers superimposed over each note for easy, intuitive editing in the familiar DP piano roll. Or users can view and edit each controller in a separate channel using DP's familiar and powerful Continuous Controller (CC) editing tools. A new scale tool allows users to increase or decrease the amount of expression by dragging up or down. The other included MX4 and DP synth plug-ins are MPE compatible, so users can get started with their MPE controller straight away.

- Audio Retrospective Record:
DP11 adds audio to its retrospective recording capabilities. Now DP always listens to MIDI and audio input sources, capturing everything even when it's not recording. As if by magic, users can immediately recall any audio or MIDI material they have recently played. For both MIDI and audio inputs, Digital Performer ensures that you never lose that precious, fleeting creative moment.

- Clip triggering with Novation and Akai controllers:
Get full, convenient control of DP's vast Clips window with popular pad controllers like the Novation Launchpad Pro mk3 or Akai APC-40. Trigger individual clips or entire scenes (parts of songs). Apply filter sweeps and other effects processing as you go: Digital Performer is now a powerful live performance platform that can take your shows anywhere you can imagine.

- New control surface plug-ins for Native Instruments and Icon:
DP 11 includes new control surface plug-ins for the current Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol range, including the M32, A-Series and S-Series MK2 controller ranges, as well as new iCON Control mixing work surfaces such as the QCon Pro G2 Series /EX, Pro X/XS, Platform Nano and Platform M/X. These state-of-the-art control surfaces enhance your DP workflow so you can work faster and more intuitively.

- Enhanced support for Avid EuCon:
DP's EuCon plug-in has been significantly updated, including support for the Avid S6 console. In addition, you can now use an EuCon-compatible work surface with DP running Windows 10.

- Support for silicon Macs and macOS Big Sur:
DP11 is fully qualified for macOS Big Sur (11.x) and the latest generation of Apple silicon Macs. No Rosetta required. Optimised for native multi-core performance, DP's audio engine prioritises audio threads on high-speed cores and reserves CPU bandwidth for time-critical processing.
